The effects of the internal flow in a D.I. Diesel injection nozzle on the atomization of a spray were analyzed experimentally. Flow visualization studies were made using a transparent acrylic model nozzle as a diesel nozzle . Water instead of disel fuel was used as the injection liquid. The geometry of the model nozzle was scaled up 10 times of the actual nozzle and the injection pressure for the model nozzle was adjusted so as to achieve a Reynolds number at the discharge hole that was the same as the actual nozzle. Experimental results show that when the needle lift was small, the high turbulence in the sac chamber generated by the high velocity seat flow made the spread angle of the spray plume large. Cavitation, which arose from the sac chamber, makes the spread angle of the spray plume large but the discharge coefficient small.

A pressure tracking control of hydroforming processes, which is used in the precision forming of. sheet metals, is considered in this paper. The hydroforming of sheet metal is performed between the high-pressure chamber controlled by pressure control valve and the punch moving with constant speed. Since the pressure in the forming chamber is a critical factor to the quality of the product severely. It is important to control the pressure to follow a prescribed pressure trajectory, depending upon the material volume and shape of the parts to be formed. Taking into consideration of the volume chamge of forming chamber during the process and the nonlinearity of the electro-magnetic relief valve, a mathematical formulation of the model describing the dynamic characteristics of this model obtained. Based upon this model a PID controller is designed for the pressure tracking.

The objective of the present study is to conduct model combustion tests for double swirl coaxial injectors to identify their combustion stability characteristics. Gaseous oxygen and mixture of methane and propane have been used as simulant propellants. Two model chambers tuned to the If acoustic resonance mode of a full-scale thrust chamber were manufactured to be used as a combustion cylinder. The main idea of the experiment is that the mixing mechanism is considered as a dominant factor significantly affecting combustion instability in a full-scale thrust chamber. Self-excited dynamic pressure values in a model chamber show different combustion stability zones with respect to a recess number. Upon test results, couplings between combustion conditions and the IT acoustic resonance mode become strengthened with the increase of a recess length.

In this study, a numerical analysis was conducted using a two-dimensional diffusion-wave analysis model to analyze the validity about the application of eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater detention system in grit chamber and permanent pond. As a result of the analysis, it is confirmed that the flood prevention effect, such as a decrease in peak flow rate and a delay in peak time, is excellent, so it is considered reasonable to apply eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater detention system in grit chamber and permanent pond.

Performance evaluation was carried out for the 70 N-class hydrazine thruster whose design performance had been already verified. The pulse-mode firing test was conducted for the development model thrusters with various thrust chamber diameters. Evaluation was made by the performance parameters such as specific impulse, impulse bit, and characteristic velocity, etc: specific impulse and characteristic velocity were deteriorated as the thrust chamber diameter deviates from a standard model. Consequently, it is revealed that the performance characteristics of standard model is most superior among the test models.

This study explores the rate of injection (ROI) and injection quantities of a solenoid-type high-pressure injector under varying conditions by integrating experimental methods with machine learning (ML) techniques. Experimental data for fuel injection were obtained using a Zeuch-based HDA Moehwald injection rate measurement system, which served as the foundation for developing a machine learning model. An artificial neural network (ANN) was employed to predict the ROI, ensuring accurate representation of injection behaviors and patterns. The present study examines the impact of ambient conditions, including chamber temperature, chamber pressure, and injection pressure, on the transient profiles of the ROI, quasi-steady ROI, and injection duration. Results indicate that increasing the injection pressure significantly increases ROI, with chamber pressure affecting its initial rising peak. However, the chamber temperature effect on ROI is minimal. The trained ANN model, incorporating three input conditions, accurately reflected experimental measurements and demonstrated expected trends and patterns. This model facilitates the prediction of various ROI profiles without the need for additional experiments, significantly reducing the cost and time required for developing injection control systems in next-generation aero-engine combustors.

The hydrodynamic performance of a floating-type OWC (Oscillating Water Column) chamber is studied numerically and experimentally in this study. The numerical approach based on two-dimensional linear theory of floating wave absorber was attempted to design an efficient wave energy absorber, while model test was performed in a wave basin to test a performance of designed model and validate the reliability of developed numerical code. The focus of study is placed mainly on the experimental study to evaluate the principal characteristics of the designed OWC chamber in regular waves. The effects of the variation of wave height on OWC device and of air pressure inside chamber are also presented. Finally, the measured results were compared with computed ones, and it was shown that the designed chamber works with high efficiency $(\eta_H>1$ over most of wave lengths covered by present study. It is therefore concluded that the developed code is capable of being successfully employed to design OWC chambers at various ocean environments, even though there exist some minor discrepancies between measured and computed results.

Based on the viscous flow characteristics of gas through capillary tube, a simple and low cost system was developed for controlling gas concentration for use in C.A experiments. The gas flow rate through capillary tube had a linear relationship with pressure, $(length)^{-1}$ and $(radius)^4$ of capillary tube, which agreed well with Hagen-Poiseuille's law. The developed system could control the gas concentration in storage chamber within ${\pm}0.3%$ deviation compared to the preset concentration. The required time for producing target gas concentration in storage chamber was exactly predicted by the model used in this study, and it required much longer time than the calculated time which divided the volume of chamber by flow rate. Therefore, for producing target gas concentration as quickly as possible, it needs to supply higher flow rate of gas during the initial stage of experiment when gas concentration in storage chamber has not reached at target value. It appeared that the developed system was very useful for C.A experiments. Because one could decide a desired flow rate by the prediction model, control flow rate freely and easily by changing pressure in the pressure-regulating chamber and the accuracy was high.

Cold flow and ignition tests were performed for a technology demonstration model of a 75-tonf thrust chamber which is a candidate liquid rocket engine for a next Korea Space Launch Vehicle. The test facility was modified to support the new concepts of the thrust chamber such as ignition system, film cooling and LOx leading supply. The hydrodynamic characteristics of the supply pipelines, thrust chamber and igniter as well as the filling time of the propellants were obtained through the cold flow tests on the LOx and kerosene and the ignition cyclogram was determined using the results. The ignition test was successfully accomplished according to the cyclogram and therefore, a basic information was obtained for further hot firing tests.

Large eddy simulation (LES) is increasingly used as a tool for studying the dynamics of turbulence in combustion chamber flows due to the promise of wider generality and more accurate results compared to Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) models. This study presents the appropriate subgrid-scale(SGS) model in LES for predicting the turbulent flow field in the internal combustion engine. The study of the effects of model and numerical parameters such as discretization scheme, initial condition, time step and SGS model was performed. The results of LES using the SGS model were found to be in the good agreement with experimental data.
